Description of the methodology used to gather data about student commuting:
The methodology for gathering data on student and employee commuting involves a survey asking respondents about their primary mode of transportation, the distance they travel to campus, and the frequency of their commute each week. This data is collected to understand commuting patterns and inform sustainability initiatives.
The commuting assessment was conducted through an anonymous email-based survey, distributed to all staff and students on December 9, 2024, with a response window closing on December 20, 2024. To encourage participation, the survey offered an incentive: a draw for 10 $50 gift cards for the Sodexo cafeteria.
While names and student/employee numbers were collected, this was solely for administering the draw, ensuring anonymity and confidentiality of the responses. The survey served as a tool to measure sustainability awareness and understanding within the institution's community, targeting both staff and students to gain a comprehensive perspective.
